I installed Kubuntu 18.04 in a new laptop (Lenovo Ideapad 330). I installed Kubuntu (along with the default Windows 10 installation) because, after a lot of tries with Ubuntu 18.04, it was not installing correctly and giving some problems.



Kubuntu works perfectly fine. Except for the fact that I have noticed that, while the computer's temperature seems normal in Windows 10 (while playing some Gamecube videogames on Dolphin emulator, which I suspect does not overheat the GPU), when running Linux it gets abnormally hot, not enough to auto-shutdown because of the heat, but enough to notice a clear difference between Windows and Linux. And this just by browsing things on the internet, or even editing some texts in gedit. I mean, this overheating is not normal at all (software related 99%)



I took a look on forums and so on, and read that installing dedicated drivers (NVIDIA ones) instead of the default ones that come with the Kubuntu distro might be a solution for this, so I downloaded the drivers (the card is an NVIDIA GEFORCE GTX 1050) from here (https://www.geforce.com/drivers/results/145271). However, when trying to install the drivers, I got an error message discussed here (How to unload kernel module 'nvidia-drm'?). I followed the steps there, but to no avail, because in the end I messed up with my graphical mode. I googled like all the afternoon and part of the night, tried other few things, but nothing worked. Finally I decided to reinstall Kubuntu again. Now, after reinstalling, I'm facing the same problem. Everything works fine, but overheating for no reason.



Do you have any ideas on why? And how can I solve this issue? I would appreciate any help because, although I can use the laptop like this, I know that this will greatly shorten my laptop's life, and I think that it is something that should be fixed.
